It definitely seems like this loveseat is missing something. It has an elegant wingback design and a comfortable seat but no armrests. By getting rid of this feature, the designers made the loveseat look more lightweight and less bulky without compromising on comfort or actually giving it a sleek structure. It’s a pretty clever design choice which is also featured by other furniture pieces.

You could just take a tree stump, bring it in your home and call it a stool or a side table. It would look nice and charming but it wouldn’t really stand out in an extraordinary way. If you want that, you should pick one of these designs. Each one is the result of a rather strange and intriguing project which turns simple tree stumps into works of art.

Samuel Chan is one of the designers who enjoy thinking outside the box and revisiting basic principles and ideas. It’s how this series of armless chairs and loveseats came to be. They’re a sort of hybrids between armchairs and rocking chairs but without the armrests. In a way, this simplifies the design even though the structural composition is a complex one.
